ST. PETERSBURG — At least 59 people are dead, nearly 10 times that number wounded because of one man with guns.

You probably heard President Trump and some members of his White House offer thoughts and prayers to people who were killed and hurt

But after being asked no fewer than five times in 10 minutes what steps the president and Congress should take to prevent gun violence like this from happening, the White House said now is not the time to discuss solutions.

It's not clear if the president wants that day to come. This is what he said after the now second worst mass shooting in U.S. history at Orlando's Pulse nightclub just over a year ago.

“You put me in there, we're going to save that second amendment, we're going to save your guns. They're not going to take away your bullets,” Trump said at a campaign rally.
